t Manufacmrers Are Optimistic Buisiness No Duller 'flnn Usual, Says Congressman Mahan, and Preparatiods are Being Made for Reduction in Tariff || Rates—Senator Brandegee Presented Statement from Hopkins and Allen Company { “It is not true that business in Con= nectieut u!‘- any more whbc: ‘1§ “Ti‘:“ during the perivd cov e dis= cussion of any tariff bill* said Con= gressman Mahan FYiday night, states a al despatch from Washington to The Bulletin, "I find as a rule that the manufacturers of the state have and am of the opinion that no great is to come to them In conse- quence of the passage of the pending definite information as to when nill is to become a law, so that they can arrange their business accordingly. When asked his opinion of the de- t of the department of jus- tice officials to continue the prosecution of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad under the Sherman Mahan said that raih ceed Mr. Mellen, should be allowed to give his entire attention to the up- building of the zreai properiies ac- quired under administration of President Mellen. I do not think the have any sympathy with the at- | tempt to hound Mr. Mellen, whom I re- gard as one of the really great railroad men of this country and whose resig- pation Is regretted by a great many ”3)7;._ Mellen has resigned and no longer fiholdz the reins of power, and ¥ do mot think the people of Conneeti- cut desire to have him further annoy- ed. Hostile criticism and threais of criminal prosecution of the officials of | the road, wicked and unjust as they were, are partially respensible for the low priee of the securities of the great- ’eut railroad properties in this country, | { | and it is only justice to the owners of these securities that further action on the part of the government against the officials of the road cease. “The man whose master mind has for years controlled the affairs of the New York, New Haven and Hartford rallroad is no longer alive, and Mr Mellen should not be made the ‘goat for carrying out the’ policies of his board of directors.” b Statement from Hopkins & Allen Co. avor of an amendment offered to paragraph 135 of the tarift relating to the manufacture of arms, Senator Brandegee said that i while he did not expect the difference |in the cost of praduction of such goods | here and ab Was of much interest to the fra of the bill, it was of | much importance to the manufacturers |of merchandise in Connecticut. of one factory in the state 500 grown men were employed age of $15 to $20 per week {of 55 hours and said that they could { not compete with factories where the {men earned from $3 to $5 per week {of 60 to 65 hours. He read state- iments from the Hopkins & Allen com- | pany of Norwich, the American Fire- rms company of Meriden and the Parker Gun works, also of Meriden. He showed that a gun that cost the ‘American manufacturer $20 to produce { contained §4 worih of material and $16 | worth of labor. The same gun in Bel- | gium, with the cost of material the . would cost but $5.33 for the la- king the total cost of the gun ! reign factory $9.33, against $20 |in the American shop. The amendment was lost, 31 to 40. Speaking in FIRST BAND COMCERT ATTRACTED THOUSANDS.
